Become a Real Estate Investor for as Little as $10

If I were younger and wanted to spend a little to earn a little this sounds better than the stock market and something that I thought might be of interest to some folks:

Become a Real Estate Investor for as Little as $10

Take a look at some of the world’s wealthiest people. What do they have in common? Many invest in large private real estate deals. And here’s the thing: There’s no reason you can’t, too — for as little as $10.

The best part? You don’t have to be the landlord. The Flagship Fund does all the heavy lifting. With an initial investment as low as $10, your money will be invested in the Fund, which already owns more than $1 billion worth of real estate around the country, from apartment complexes to the thriving housing rental market to larger last-mile e-commerce logistics centers.

Want to invest more? Many investors choose to invest $1,000 or more. This is a Fund that can fit any type of investor’s needs

Always consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Fundrise Flagship Fund before investing. Read these objectives carefully before investing.

Cincinnati has recently begun to experienced some negative effects of investment fund driven real estate speculation.
It's not like that are going to stop because I don't invest, but id rather not purposefully contribute to what I see as a problem.

Can I guess some of these effects?

Has all this turned patches of farmable land into apartments/condos? Has it produced traffic-congestion in areas that were not congested before? Has it hiked up the locals' property taxes because rapid infrastructure must be created to account for the new buildings/tenants?

I am seeing this in Middle Tennessee and Northern Alabama for sure.

I would be interesting in knowing more about what has been happening.

For about four years I get 3 or 4 calls a day wanting to buy three different properties tah we are connected with.  I ask them to quit calling though that didn`t have any effect.

Do you feel these are related?

I'm not a financial advisor, I'm just a person, but I know someone who tried one of these things, and he had a lot of trouble getting his money back out. The terms were, he felt, deceptively stated. They held his money for six months before releasing it, after lots of calls and legal threats. It was a larger mainstream product, not a fringe one.

It's a good idea to have a lawyer or accountant go over it if it's new to you and you don't know a lot of people who are already doing it, whatever it is, in terms of financial strategy.

Kris, I am just curious.  Did the fund he was in say upfront that he could get his money back?

That is something I did not even consider.

And yes always:

Since the fund is the landlord, I would assume all money would be eaten up with charges and expenses until a person has been in the fund long enough to have earned some dollars.
